    Viyam Ja Khaada|Postpartum Food|AlifBe~49

    December 31, 2021 - By 

    The last letter of  AlifBe, the Sindhi ‘Alphabet’ is ي in Sindhi, य in Devanagari and ‘Y’ is Roman Sindhi. It is also used as a vowel and could be pronounced as /e/ (even long /eee/). No Sindhi dish starts with the letter Y. Hence for the last letter in this series I have picked ‘Viyam Ja khaada’ . Viyam /Vyam/Vi-am means Delivery (Child birth) and Khaada means food/dishes. So basically it means the food that is supposed to be consumed by new mothers, particularly for the first 40 days after child birth. Traditionally, the new mother is supposed to…

    December 17, 2021 - By 

    The AlifBe of Sindhi food series is inching towards the end and I am trying to stay focused and enthusiastic about blogging beyond the AlifBe series. Wish me luck, dear friends! For the uninitiated, there are 52 letters in Sindhi script. Out of 52, I have skipped three letters, namely ح , ظ , ث i.e ‘S’, ‘Z’ and ‘H’ respectively as these are used in the words of Non Sindhi origin (i.e in words that are Arabic, Persian etc) while هہ , ز , س are used for the similar sounds (S, Z, H) in words of Sindhi origin.…

  • Vataran Ji Lilotari|AlifBe~46

    December 8, 2021 - By 

    The 46th letter of Sindhi AlifBe (Sindhi script ) is و in Sindhi, व in Devanagari and V in Roman Sindhi. And the corresponding dish for AlifBe` 46 is Vatan~an (Vataran) Ji Lilotari ! I know many of you will wonder whether it actually is a dish from Sindhi cuisine  (coz. it sounds like a Gujarati style subzi) but well, it is indeed a traditional Sindhi Brahma Khastriya style curry and many of us know it by the name ‘Peas Tamate mein’ ( peas in tomato gravy)! Sindhi Brahma Khastriya community is yet another subset of Sindhi community and like…

    Singyun Tamate Mein~AlifBe~41

    October 13, 2021 - By 

    ‘Singyun (सिङयूँ) Tamate mein‘ literally means the drumstick pods or sehjan ki phalli, (cooked) in a tomato gravy. It is considered one of the best dishes to have when you need to consume something nutritious and light on tummy. It is also mandatory for the new mothers to consume drumstick pods/flowers as a part of healing and nourishing ‘Viyam Ja Khaada‘ or the post partum diet for the first forty days after child birth. Though while making it for the lactating mothers (for 40 days) the recipe varies a bit , this is a very basic recipe and one can…

  • Ghotyal Saag|Sindhi Style Spinach|AlifBe40

    October 4, 2021 - By 

    Ghotyal Saag or Sindhi Style Spinach  Aisee Palak recipe video AlifBe i.e A-Z of Sindhi Food series is now at the 40th letter. I went crazy figuring out name of a Sindhi dish starting with this letter but couldn’t find any. The letter is گهہ  i.e  घ (in Devanagari) or ‘Gh’ in Roman Sindhi. ‘Gh’ as in Ghat or Ghee. In January this year when I was making a list of possible dishes for each Sindhi letter, I assumed that ‘Ghee’ or ‘Gheehar’ (a Sindhi sweetmeat) would be apt for this letter. But when I started referring dictionaries, I was…

Gyars: Gyars (Giyaras/ Igyas) is observed on the eleventh day of Hindu Lunar month. In each lunar month two Gyars (Ekadashi) are observed.

There are various ways to observe a fast and there are various types of…
